Frankenplane Prototypes

I was bored last night on Halloween and came up with some interesting shapes in my paint program by combining prototype features. Were there ever prototypes that caught your whimsy although in reality were probably left to history? Share your story or digital paint hack.

My frankenplane is the MiG-21I with the scoop intake and solid nose combined with the E-2 Ogival wing prototype for Tu-144 research:

That is actually a really fantastic looking aircraft! Kind of like a SAAB Drakken on steroids. Pakistani markings, I presume.

I still think the MiG-28 showed a lot of promise in the mid 80s but never understood why the plane wasn’t continued with.
